Actually, our fine pals at Time-Warner Cable interrupt this blog by cutting off the Bully home Internet connection thanks to a modem that appears to have mice living In it or some such thing! I dunno, it's a mystery to me that mailing a letter with a stamp even works.

Anyway, sorry for the interruption and delay of what was to be the culmination of Crime Alley month! We will return as soon as Time-Warner gives me a modem that isn't made of cheese. Until then, be good to each other and yourselves!

In its ever-insatiable hunger to publish the most lucrative comic book franchises to sink our teeth into, Marvel Comics has brought us Marvel Zombies...

...Squadron Supreme Zombies...

...Christmas Carol Zombies...

...Disco Marvel Zombies...

... and even Spider-Ham Zombies!

But I believe that I've come up with a fresh new line for Marvel to move into, something that has never been done before, something that'll attract boys and girls and comics buyers of all ages (that is, 32-45)...

Zombie Millie the Model!

Yep, that's an actual unretouched panel from a Millie the Model comic book. (Trust me, context wouldn't help one bit.) And yeah, I know, that's actually Chili the Model getting all bitey in that panel. But then again, in an all-out post-apocalyptic catfight kick-ass brawl, don't you think conniving and treacherous Chili would come out on top? That is, if Veronica Lodge didn't eat her brains first.

So don't buy Abercrombie, buy Zombie...Marvel Comics' Millie the Zombie Model, that is! (Call me, Axel AlonsoI gotta lot more great pitches like this for you!)
